So I'm on treatment number 4, and the side effects are indeed getting worse each time. That's not bothering me, though, because the oncologist said today that the chemo was working very well! The scans reveal that there are no new tumors, that the existing tumors are all shrinking (not exactly "melting away", he said, but shrinking), and all my blood tests were in the green. As far as he's concerned, I will be ready for surgery either the week after December 15th or the week between X-mas and New Year's day. Everyone seems to be very leery of the surgery, but I'm inclined to think "bring it on" and let's get another step in this process checked off the list.
I'm looking forward to life after cancer.
